Shed Tears Over The Intensity Of A Severe Headache

Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.

I have been using Young Living essential oils for about a year now. I had winched my back so bad that I had to depend on meds BUT very conservatively.

One day, after an eight hour work shift, the medicine for my back didn't even touch the pain. I then realized that an intense headache developed because of all the firing of the nerves on the back of my neck and skull.

I got in my car and shed a tear because of the intensity. I pulled out my Peppermint and thought I have heard so much about it effects what do I have to loose? I rubbed a couple of drops on the back of my neck. The aroma took me mentally to a better place to begin with. Then as I drove off, 20 minutes later, I was no longer in that intense pain.

One hour later I was not completely out of headache pain so I did another application then I inhaled the rest that was left on my hands. Wow, that statement about how oils can cross the cross the blood brain barrier is really true! I was overtaken by the aroma again. Then the discomfort was really gone. It was like my brain said headache? What headache?

I am a believer now in the healing nature of essential oils!
